Participatory Village Land Use Planning in Tanzania

Tanzania is endowed with enormous land-based terrestrial resources including minerals, wildlife, forestry, protected areas, water catchments, extensive rangelands, seascapes, mountain ranges and peaks and rich biodiversity of both national and international importance. These spectacular landscapes are surrounded by complex land use systems forming unique human-terrestrial interconnections. Nonetheless, the human-terrestrial existence faces a multitude of planning, administration and management challenges. Recognizing unprecedented pressure and conflicts being exerted on the available and limited land and land resources coupled with lack of adequate planning capabilities, the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania established the National Land Use Planning Commission (NLUPC).
